The Pacific Ocean off the west coast of North America - ranging
from the south coast of Alaska to the Equator - encompasses many
marine environments, from warm tropics to cold temperate waters,
and from the shallow continental shelf to deep ocean canyons. A
diverse number of marine mammals have adapted characteristics to
survive and prosper in each of these environments. Beaked and sperm
whales spend their time in the deep ocean. Most dolphin species
favour warmer waters, while a few prefer cooler climes. Porpoises
avoid the tropics altogether. Harbour seals stay near the temperate
coast, as do sea otters.
The National Audubon Society Guide to Marine Mammals of the World describes in fascinating detail all 120 species of the world's whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals and sea lions, manatees, Marine and Sea Otters, and the Polar Bear. Written by a team of experts and featuring more than 320 illustrations, 418 photographs, and 123 maps, this new guide offers more authoritative, up-to-date, and accessible information than any book previously published on the subject.
